Does anybody know of any decent Kindergartens in Beijing?? Or actually, more to the point does anybody know of any that I really shouldn't touch with a barge pole?????

Any info would be very much appreciated!

Thanks

If you don't take that unprofessional approach of all locals and some westerners, i.e. ignore preschoolers' needs, then try a google search for Montessori or Yew Chung International School.

Chinese kindergartens all operate as boot camps. They are too regimentinduct children mercilessly into a life devoid of play and recreation, and full of repetitive study and oral rehearsals. Those you should not even touch with a 8 m pole!
